He originally thought that Luo Dan had simply given him a task, but he didn't expect it to be so complicated. Now, he not only had to deal with those people from the big sects, but also had to take care of Luo Dan's clone.
"Oh, what should I do?" Pei Sheng sighed helplessly. He felt as if he was caught in a huge whirlpool and couldn't extricate himself.
However, despite all his complaints, Pei Sheng was a smart man. He knew that since Luo Dan had given him such an important task, he had to do his best to complete it. So, he took a deep breath and began to discuss with Luo Dan's clone how to deal with the strategies of those people from the big sects.
At this time, Luo Dan had quietly arrived at the depths of the City Lord's Mansion. He knew in his heart that this mission was full of unknowns and dangers, but he also understood that only by facing it personally could he find the answer to the problem. So he strengthened his belief and strode towards his goal.
Pei Sheng's response and the sect's doubts
Pei Sheng stood at the door of the secret room, staring at Luo Dan's receding back, with both worry and expectation in his heart. He knew that Luo Dan would face many unknowns and challenges when he went to the City Lord's Mansion, but he also believed that since Luo Dan decided to do this, he must have his reasons and confidence.
Just as Pei Sheng was immersed in his thoughts, suddenly, a rapid and powerful knock on the door broke the silence of the secret room. This sound was like thunder, waking Pei Sheng up from his deep thoughts in an instant. He frowned and muttered to himself: "Who could it be at this time?"
With a hint of doubt, Pei Sheng slowly walked towards the door, his hand gently resting on the door handle, but he did not open it immediately. He peeked out through the crack in the door and saw several figures standing outside the door, dressed in gorgeous clothes and with extraordinary aura, obviously from the family members of several large sects.
Pei Sheng's heart tightened. He knew that these people from the sect came here at this time, it must be for Luo Dan's matter. He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then suddenly opened the door, ready to face this sudden "storm".
As soon as the door opened, several people from the sect rushed in impatiently, their faces full of anxiety and expectation. However, when they saw that it was only Pei Sheng standing at the door, the expressions on their faces instantly became complicated.
"Pei Sheng, where is Lord Luodan? We have something to find him for!" One of the sect's men said anxiously, his tone revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and urging.
Pei Sheng was a little flustered when he saw this, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "Everyone, please be patient. Lord Luodan is dealing with some important matters at the moment and cannot meet you in person. However, please rest assured that he has already solved the problem for you. Just trust us on this point!"
As soon as Pei Sheng finished speaking, several people from the sect looked at each other, obviously doubting what Pei Sheng said. They came here to seek Luo Dan's help, and now that Luo Dan was not here, they naturally felt a little lost and uneasy.
"Pei Sheng, are you sure Lord Luodan will solve it for us? We can't wait!" Someone from another sect said anxiously, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Pei Sheng looked at the anxious expressions of the crowd and thought to himself. He knew that he had to give them a clear answer at this time to calm their emotions. So, he took a deep breath and said firmly: "Please rest assured, since Lord Luodan has promised to solve the problem for you, he will definitely do what he said. During this period of time, you will stay here first, and when Lord Luodan comes back, everything will be clear."
Pei Sheng's words made the people from the sect feel a little relieved. Although they were still a little worried, since Pei Sheng said so, they could only choose to believe it. So, they all nodded in agreement and decided to stay in the City Lord's Mansion first and wait for Luo Dan's return.
Pei Sheng was relieved when he saw that everyone had finally settled down. He knew that this was only a temporary calm and the real challenge was still to come. But he also believed that as long as Luo Dan could successfully solve the problem, everything would be fine.
Pei Sheng's comfort and the sect's anxiety
----------
Pei Sheng stood in the secret room, facing several people from the sect. His tone was calm and firm, and every word seemed to carry an indescribable power. However, as his voice fell, the faces of several people from the sect showed more and more puzzled expressions.
"Why? Pei Sheng, didn't we agree to go to the spirit world? Why do you make us wait here at this critical moment? Aren't you dragging your feet?" One of the sect's men couldn't help but question, with a hint of anxiety and dissatisfaction in his voice.
Someone from another sect also echoed, "Yes, Pei Sheng, we are gathered here for the spiritual world. If we delay any further, what if the situation gets worse?"
Facing everyone's doubts, Pei Sheng did not panic. He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Don't worry, things are not as simple as you think. Lord Luodan is dealing with some more important things at the moment. He asked us to wait here to avoid alerting the enemy and causing unnecessary trouble."
Pei Sheng's words calmed down the people from the sects a little, but the doubts and anxiety on their faces did not completely dissipate. They knew that Luo Dan was the key to this operation, and without him, it would be difficult for them to achieve the desired results in the spiritual world.
"But, Pei Sheng, we can't just keep waiting like this, right?" A man from the sect couldn't help but speak again, his tone full of helplessness and anxiety.
Pei Sheng glanced at him and thought to himself. He knew that he had to give them a clear answer at this time to completely calm their emotions. So he slowly said: "Don't worry, Lord Luodan will be back soon. During this time, we can discuss countermeasures and make full preparations. Once Lord Luodan comes back, we can take action immediately."
Pei Sheng's words made the people from the sect feel a little relieved. They began to sit together and discuss the affairs of the spirit world. However, although they were discussing, they were secretly waiting anxiously for Luo Dan's return.
Pei Sheng looked at the busy figures of the people, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried. He knew that Luodan was facing a huge challenge at this time, and all he could do was to delay time as much as possible and wait for Luodan's return. However, as time went by, Pei Sheng's anxiety became more and more serious. He began to worry whether Luodan could solve the problem smoothly and whether he could come back in time. "Lord Luodan, when will you come back?" Pei Sheng prayed secretly in his heart, and his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and expectation. He knew that only when Luodan came back could the problem at hand be truly solved, and only then could they smoothly go to the spirit world and complete their mission.
However, at this time, Luo Dan was deep in the City Lord's Mansion, having intense negotiations with a mysterious person. He knew that he had a heavy responsibility, and he also knew that Pei Sheng and the people of the sect were waiting for him. But he knew even more clearly that only by solving the problem at hand could they ensure that their actions went smoothly. Therefore, he could only temporarily put aside his worries about Pei Sheng and the people of the sect and devote himself to the negotiations.
The city lord is waiting for Luo Dan's sudden appearance
----------
At this moment, the atmosphere in the corridor of the City Lord's Mansion was extremely solemn. The City Lord stood at the door of Luo Dan's resting room, waiting anxiously. His eyes lingered on the door from time to time, and then looked into the distance, as if he was expecting something. The guards around him also held their breath and did not dare to breathe. They knew very well that the quietness at this moment contained an unknown tension.
The city lord was filled with worry. Luodan's strength far exceeded theirs, and he easily concealed his aura, making it impossible for them to detect his specific movements. But at this moment, Luodan blocked them in front of him without hesitation, preventing them from entering the room, which made them feel very confused and uneasy.
"Why hasn't your Excellency come out yet? We need to discuss some serious matters with you today!" A guard couldn't help but speak and broke the silence, his tone full of anxiety and helplessness.
"That's right, sir, are you in there? We really have something urgent to report!" Another guard echoed, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
The city lord listened to the guards' words, and his anxiety became even greater. He knew very well what Luo Dan's retreat at this moment meant to the entire city lord's mansion. If they could not get in touch with Luo Dan in time, then all the plans that followed might be disrupted.
After struggling for a while, the city lord finally made up his mind. He took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the door, ready to open it himself to check the situation. However, just as he was about to touch the door, it suddenly opened from the inside.
This sudden change startled the city lord. He subconsciously took a step back, his body trembling slightly. At the same time, the scene in the room also came into his sight.

Luo Dan was standing in the middle of the room, his expression calm and deep, as if he had just experienced a fierce inner struggle. His eyes revealed firmness and determination, which made people feel awe.
"City Lord, you are here." Luodan's voice was calm and powerful, as if he had already anticipated the arrival of the city lord and the guards.
The city lord looked at Luo Dan in front of him, and the anxiety in his heart instantly dissipated. He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Lord Luo Dan, we have finally waited for you. We have something to discuss with you."
Luo Dan nodded slightly, signaling the city lord and the guards to enter the room. As the door closed, a discussion about the future fate of the city lord's mansion quietly began. In this discussion, Luo Dan will once again demonstrate his extraordinary wisdom and strength, leading the city lord and the guards to an unknown tomorrow.
Luo Dan's questioning and the city lord's fear
Outside a secret room in the City Lord's Mansion, Luo Dan stood on a high step, looking down at the City Lord from above. His eyes became extremely sharp, as if he could see through the deepest secrets of people's hearts. The City Lord stood below, feeling a little breathless under Luo Dan's pressure. He looked up at Luo Dan, his heart filled with fear and uneasiness.
"What were you doing just now?" Luo Dan's voice was calm and low, but it carried a kind of majesty that could not be ignored. He stared at the city lord closely, as if he wanted to see through his soul.
Upon hearing this, the city lord's heart tightened, and he hurriedly explained: "Sir, I saw that you were not in the room, so out of curiosity I wanted to open it and take a look. I didn't expect that you would come out at this time, it's really... what a coincidence." The city lord's words were trembling, and he was obviously trying to hide his panic.
Luo Dan listened to the explanation of the city lord, and his expression did not change at all. He slowly raised his right hand and gently hooked his fingers, as if to signal the city lord to come closer. However, just as the city lord took a step and was about to approach Luo Dan, Luo Dan suddenly waved his hand back.
"Snap!" A crisp sound echoed in the air. Luo Dan's palm passed by like lightning and hit the city lord's face directly. The city lord only felt a huge force coming, and his body instantly lost balance. The whole person turned in the air like a leaf blown by the wind.
However, at this critical moment, the city lord miraculously stabilized his body. He adjusted his posture in the air, and the next second, he landed steadily on the ground. Although the warmth of Luo Dan's palm still remained on his face, the city lord did not dare to be negligent. He quickly knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and did not dare to look directly into Luo Dan's eyes.
"My Lord, I... I was wrong. I shouldn't have acted on my own initiative. Please forgive me." The city lord's voice was trembling, full of fear and regret. He knew that his actions had angered Luo Dan this time, and if he didn't ask for forgiveness as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous.
Luo Dan looked at the city lord's embarrassed appearance, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little. He slowly walked in front of the city lord, squatted down, and looked at the city lord level. "City lord, you should know that my patience is limited. I don't want it to happen again, understand?" Luo Dan's voice was calm, but the threat in it could not be ignored.
The city lord nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood Luo Dan's meaning. "Sir, I... I understand. I will be careful in the future and never make the same mistake again." After saying that, the city lord kowtowed deeply to show his sincerity and repentance.
Luo Dan looked at the city lord's sincere attitude, and the anger in his heart finally dissipated completely. He stood up, patted the city lord on the shoulder, and motioned him to stand up as well. "Okay, city lord. This matter is over. But you must remember that as the owner of the city lord's mansion, every decision you make is related to the safety of the entire city lord's mansion. You must think twice before doing anything in the future." Luo Dan's words were full of earnestness, obviously reminding the city lord to act more cautiously in the future. (End of this chapter)
